The Buddy Biancalana Hour


Today's card of the day is 1985 Topps Buddy Biancalana.

Buddy Biancalana: the man with the sweetest smelling name in the major leagues. Buddy wasnt much of a ballplayer but he made his mark on American pop culture after his career was over. He had an afternoon talk show in the style of the old 1970's talk show style like the Merv Griffin show called "The Buddy Biancalana Hour". Buddy would have guests from Hollywood on and they would swap stories. The show usually ended with Buddy crooning a pop standard such as "I've Got You Under My Skin" and "In the Still of the Night"
